A study published in the Journal of Traumatic Stress Disorders & Treatment demonstrates that SE intervention can reduce symptoms of trauma, including depression, anxiety, and PTSD [^1^]. Thus, supporting the value of including this evidence-based technique in trauma-informed training.

These range from an increased ability to manage stress, creating an enhanced sense of well-being, reducing the symptoms of PTSD, to improving interpersonal relationships. By tapping into the body’s innate wisdom, SE can lead to profound healing and transformation.
